Album Notes & Community Reviews

Released exclusively in the United States, 'Animalization' compiles some of the finest blues-rock covers and originals from the final days of the group's original incarnation. Powered by Eric Burdon's roaring vocals and Hilton Valentine's sharp guitar lines, it features the iconic hit 'Don't Bring Me Down'. The record perfectly bottles the menacing, working-class grit that separated The Animals from their merseybeat peers.
